TAGUIG CITY, Philippines, June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Globe has once again been recognized in Fortune's Southeast Asia 500 list, underscoring its continued role as one of the region's leading companies amid a rapidly evolving digital economy. The company ranked No. 119 this year, marking its third consecutive year on the annual list following its recognition in 2024 and 2025. The recognition reflects Globe's continued scale and contribution to one of the world's fastest-growing digital economies.
Compiled by Fortune, the Southeast Asia 500 ranks the region's largest companies based on revenue. The list highlights organizations that play a significant role in driving economic growth, innovation, and development across Southeast Asia.
For Globe, the recognition reflects its continued transformation beyond traditional telecommunications as it strengthens the digital infrastructure that powers the country's increasingly connected economy.
